Description

Florfenicol is a synthetic broad-spectrum antibiotic that is effective against most Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria isolated from domestic animals. Florfenicol, a fluorinated derivative of chloramphenicol, acts by inhibiting protein synthesis at the ribosomal level and is bacteriostatic.

Florfenicol does not carry the risk of inducing human aplastic anaemia that is associated with the use of chloramphenicol, and also has activity against some chloramphenicol-resistant strains of bacteria.

Indication

Treatment and prevention of swine respiratory disease in infected herds due to Pasteurella multocida susceptible to florfenicol.

Dosage

100mg Em-Taikomix 10% per day for 5 consecutive days.

For a daily feed intake of 50g feed per kg body weight, this dosage corresponds to a rate of incorporation of 2kg of premix / ton of feed.
